| Summary:
Remmy, Maggie, Mallory and Diana are lost in the desert, having been deposited on
a world where Los Angeles apparently never existed. They stumble upon an archeological
expedition and one Professor Bigelow, an overbearing palaeontologists who's discovered
that L.A. did exist... over four hundred years ago. The city and its surroundings is long
gone and buried, the victim of a major catastrophe. The Sliders learn that the parallel
development on this world managed to leap ahead by several hundred years, hence the
existence of ancient Los Angeles. Deep in the bowels of the dig they find the remains of
The Chandler Hotel and evidence that their duplicates, apparently sliders themselves,
somehow died on this world. Meanwhile, the local tribe, a superstitious lot, are up in
arms. They want Bigelow to cease any further encroachment on what they believe is a holy
burial site. They have set Rembrandt up as their god and under his leadership are prepared
to kill the professor and his group to protect their sacred ground. |
